After a massive fire ripped through a family-owned greenhouse complex in Laval early Tuesday, firefighters called in excavators to demolish the smouldering remains of two industrial buildings. Eventually, at least one roof did collapse as the fire completely destroyed the two buildings and continued to burn well into the morning. The fire broke out in a greenhouse complex located in the Sainte-Dorothée sector of Laval, sending up black smoke that could be seen several kilometres away. (Jay Turnbull/CBC)Radio-Canada is reporting the main furnace, which provided heat to the entire complex, was destroyed in the fire. Robert Ouellette, who lives near the greenhouse complex, told Radio-Canada he woke up as the fire started.
